Clipping can occur anywhere along the signal chain. The "signal chain" is the path from the original sound through to the final recording. If you try recording a Saturn V rocket taking off with a normal microphone, the microphone will be overloaded and no matter how low you turn down the r...

I've only had a brief look and I've not tried it, but this looks like it is exactly what Quant is asking for.

I still think improving Clip Fix should be on the agenda. I agree. Nyquist, because of its rapid development capacity, will be useful for prototyping algorithms. It is likely to be impractically slow for recursive processing of samples, but I think that the specific limitation highlighted by Quant'...

It probably won't make much difference, but you can set the counters in the Selection Toolbar to "seconds". This will mean that they are only counting seconds during playback rather than milliseconds or whatever units they may be set at. Information about the Selection Toolbar is in the ma...

They will move together if the selection (highlighted area) is over the audio in the tracks AND you start dragging from within the highlighted area. If you start the "click/drag" from part of the audio that is not highlighted, then only that one audio clip will move. You may also find &quo...
